Market Overview:


The global low sulfur fuel oil (LSFO) market is expected to grow from USD XX million in 2018 to USD XX million by 2030, at a CAGR of X.X%. The growth of the LSFO market can be attributed to the increasing demand for low sulfur fuel oil from the shipping industry. Based on type, the LSFO market is segmented into 0.5% VLSFO and 0.1% ULSFO. The 0.5% VLSFO segment is projected to lead the LSFO market during the forecast period, owing to its high demand from cargo ships and container ships operating in coastal areas and emission control areas (ECAs), respectively. Based on application, the LSFO market is segmented into cargo ships, container ships, bulk carriers, and other applications such as cruise liners and ferries.


Global Low Sulfur Fuel Oil(LSFO) Industry Outlook


Product Definition:


Low Sulfur Fuel Oil(LSFO) is a fuel oil that has a sulfur content of less than 0.5%. LSFO is used in marine and power generation applications where sulfur emissions are regulated.


0.5% VLSFO:


0.5% VLSFO is a low sulfur fuel oil product, which contains less than 15 ppm of sulfur. It has been developed to replace diesel in applications where high-performance and low-cost fuels are required such as power generation, industrial processes and transportation. The product is manufactured by the catalytic hydration of olefins with vegetable oils or animal fats at temperatures below 100°C (ultra-low temperature).


0.1% ULSFO:


0.1% ULSFO is a fuel oil product with very low sulfur content, which can be used in marine and stationary power generation applications. It has the ability to reduce harmful emissions from coal-fired power plants and improve efficiency of gas turbine engines by up to 15%.


Application Insights:


The cargo ships, container ships and bulk carriers application segments accounted for a combined share of over 60% in 2017. The demand is expected to be driven by the growth in trade activities across the globe. Cargo ships are majorly used for transporting various cargoes such as raw materials, manufactured goods, agricultural products and other liquids including chemicals and petroleum products among others.


LSFO is widely used in the engine room of a ship to propel its propellers since it burns cleaner with reduced sulfur content as compared to other conventional fuels such as diesel or gasoline which contain high levels of sulfur compounds that can potentially harm the environment if not properly disposed off at sea. Growing demand from countries like India who are building large number of vessels for domestic shipping purposes coupled with growing awareness regarding environmental protection is likely to drive market growth over next few years.


Regional Analysis:


Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth of this region is mainly attributed to rising demand for low sulfur fuel oil in China and India. In 2017, Asia Pacific accounted for a share of more than 60% in terms of consumption volume and it is projected to grow at a CAGR close to 4% from 2018 to 2030.


China has been making continuous efforts towards reducing air pollution caused by burning fossil fuels such as coal, which results into increasing demand for low sulfur fuel oil across the country. Moreover, government initiatives such as “13th Five Year Plan” aimed at sustainable development have focused on developing domestic energy resources including natural gas and shale oil which will further drive product demand over the coming years.


Growth Factors:


  • Stringent environmental regulations for marine vessels and ports across the world are expected to drive the demand for LSFO in the coming years.
  • The global LSFO market is projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 5% from 2017 to 2022, owing to increasing demand from Asia Pacific region.
  • Rising consumption of fuel oil in power generation and petrochemical industries is also anticipated to boost the market growth over the forecast period.
  • Availability of low-sulfur crude oil resources is another key factor that would propel LSFO demand in near future.
